11a Veeam Agent Computer (Linux) with Centos 6

Post by AlertSistem »

I'm upgrading my Veeam Backup and Replication from 10.0.x to 11a where I have some agents installed on physical computer which run Centos 6.x .
I checked Agent Computer is compatible only on Centos 7.x... did you get real experience with Centos 6.x with Veeam version 11a ?

Hi Mike

You can still use Veeam Agent for Linux v4 with Veeam Backup & Replication V11a. Veeam Agent 4.0 is the last supported version with CentOS 6.0, which gives you time to plan an upgrade of your CentOS 6 server to newer versions or another supported Linux distribution.

Thanks

About Veeam B&R V12:
I verified according to similar link, but about V12 Veeam version, V12 supports agent v5 and v6 which correspondes to 10.x and 11.x Veeam B&R
Agent v4 is detected but It dowesn'work with Veeam 12.
Right ?

Correct.
Veeam Backup & Replication v12 will detect Veeam Agent v4. You can use Veeam Backup & Replication v12 to update those agents to V6. Backup from a Veeam Agent v4 to Veeam Backup & Replication v12 is not possible.
